ABC Inc. spent a total of $48,000 on factory overhead. Of this, $28,000 was fixed overhead. ABC Inc. had budgeted $27,000 for fixed overhead. Actual machine hours were 5.000. Standard hours for units made were 4,800. The standard variable overhead rate was $4.10. What is the variable overhead rate variance?
Calculating amount of factory overhead applied to work in process The overhead application rate for a company is 2.50 per unit, made up of 1.00 for fixed overhead and 1.50 for variable overhead. Normal capacity is 10,000 units. In one month, there was an unfavorable flexible budget variance of 200. Actual overhead for the month was 27,000. What was the amount of the budgeted overhead for the actual level of production?
Standard cost summary; materials and labor cost variances Perkins Processors Inc. produces an average of 10,000 units each month. The factory standards are 20,000 hours of direct labor and 10,000 pounds of materials for this volume. The standard cost of direct labor is 9.00 per hour, and the standard cost of materials is 4.00 per pound. The standard factory overhead at this level of production is 20,000. During the current month the production and cost reports reflected the following information: On the basis of this information: 1. Prepare a standard cost summary. 2. Calculate the materials (use the materials purchase price variance) and labor cost variances, and indicate whether they are favorable or unfavorable, using the formulas on pages 421422 and 424.
Calculating factory overhead: two variances Munoz Manufacturing Co. normally produces 10,000 units of product X each month. Each unit requires 2 hours of direct labor, and factory overhead is applied on a direct labor hour basis. Fixed costs and variable costs in factory overhead at the normal capacity are 2.50 and 1.50 per direct labor hour, respectively. Cost and production data for May follow: a. Calculate the flexible-budget variance. b. Calculate the production-volume variance. c. Was the total factory overhead under- or overapplied? By what amount?
At the beginning of the year, Lopez Company had the following standard cost sheet for one of its chemical products: Lopez computes its overhead rates using practical volume, which is 80,000 units. The actual results for the year are as follows: (a) Units produced: 79,600; (b) Direct labor: 158,900 hours at 18.10; (c) FOH: 831,000; and (d) VOH: 112,400. Required: 1. Compute the variable overhead spending and efficiency variances. 2. Compute the fixed overhead spending and volume variances.
Materials and labor variances Fausto Fabricators Inc. uses a standard cost system to account for its single product. The standards established for the product include the following: The following operating data came from the records for the month: In process, beginning inventory, none. In process, ending inventory, 800 units, 80% complete as to labor; material is issued at the beginning of processing. Completed during the month, 5,600 units. Materials issued to production were 51,680 lb @ .55 per pound. Direct labor was 384,000 for 40,000 hours worked. Required: Calculate the following variances, using the diagram format in Figure 8-4. 1. Materials price. 2. Materials quantity. 3. Net materials variance. 4. Labor rate. 5. Labor efficiency. 6. Net labor variance. (Hint: Before determining the standard quantity for materials and labor, you must first compute the equivalent units of production for materials and labor.)
Eagle Inc. uses a standard cost system. During the most recent period, the company manufactured 115,000 units. The standard cost sheet indicates that the standard direct labor cost per unit is $1.50. The performance report for the period includes an unfavorable direct labor rate variance of $3,700 and a favorable direct labor time variance of $10,275. What was the total actual cost of direct labor incurred during the period?
Fitzgerald Company manufactures sewing machines, and they produced 2,500 this past month. The standard variable manufacturing overhead (M0H) rate used by the company is $6.75 per machine hour. Each sewing machine requires 13.5 machine hours. Actual machine hours used last month were 33,500, and the actual variable MOH rate last month was $7.00. Calculate the variable overhead rate variance and the variable overhead efficiency variance.

Each employee presently provides 40 hours of productive labor per week. Information about a production week is as follows: Instructions Determine (A) the standard cost per unit for direct materials and direct labor; (B) the price variance, quantity variance, and total direct materials cost variance; and (C) the rate variance, time variance, and total direct labor cost variance.
Factory overhead cost variance report Feeling Better Medical Inc., a manufacturer of disposable medical supplies, prepared the following factory overhead cost budget for the Assembly Department for October of the current year. The company expected to operate the department at 100% of normal capacity of 30,000 hours. During October, the department operated at 28,500 hours, and the factory overhead costs incurred were indirect factory wages, 234,000; power and light, 178,500; indirect materials, 50,600; supervisory salaries, 126,000; depreciation of plant and equipment, 70,000; and insurance and property taxes, 44,000. Instructions Prepare a factory overhead cost variance report for October. To be useful for cost control, the budgeted amounts should be based on 28,500 hours.
Georgia Gasket Co. budgets 8,000 direct labor hours for the year. The total overhead budget is expected to amount to 20,000. The standard cost for a unit of the companys product estimates the variable overhead as follows: The actual data for the period follow: Using the four-variance method, calculate the overhead variances. (Hint: First compute the budgeted fixed overhead rate.)
